Yes, the annoying part is that the problem often shows up after a gap, not on the exact day you change jobs. I have seen people assume the company enrollment was handled, then NHIS or a clinic later reflects the transition differently and the bill appears out of nowhere. In Korea it is worth checking the insurance status directly after a job or visa change instead of trusting that silence means it is settled.
